I would add some moss (like ownedbycats said) or anubias.

You could try glueing/tying moss to some thin flat rocks, and using those to make a carpet for part of your tank.

Probably won't do much in the realm of ground cover with your current setup.

With root tabs, Crypt parva would work.

It is an aqueon fluorescent light fixture (comes in a kit) I added a wide spectrum bulb to grow plants

Is your fixture T5HO? T5NO? T8? Power Compact?

Take a look at the bulb and the inside of the fixture and share any text you can see.

I have a 20 gal. high with regular gravel. I use the penguin 150 biowheel and the Aqueon 20 quiet-flow filters. My light is a fluorescent wide spectrum plant light.

There are all kinds of plants but people will likely need more specifics about your aquarium before offering suggestions.
